I think noting the prevalence of AI generated content masquerading as human is also relevant and important to point out.

If I want relevant content written by AI, then I will talk to an AI, not go to a forum. AI generated comments should be tagged as such.

For what it's worth, the user edited their comment after I posted so that it no longer appears to be written by AI. The original had all the signs of coming straight out of a ChatGPT prompt (but no longer does). You may have missed the comment before the edit, but it was very obvious.

I've seen it post edit it seems. It would be nice if HN marked that... But yeah, if it's good quality and I can't tell the difference from a human writing it, I'm cool with it - because at that point it's just random accusations that are going to be wrong a lot of the time.
